No Pai Chan from Virtua Fighter? That's too bad. I guess most people don't care much for Virtua Fighter anymore.

Eva Urashiromiya is an odd chase. She isn't cute as an adult, and Eva-Beatrice represents the twisted Magical Girl/Cute Witch archetype.

No love for Pai or Ling Ling from 3x3 Eyes? Well, the ova is a bit old by now, but still...

Kagura, girl Ranma and Eva Ushiromiya are the only Japanese on the list.

Kagura isn't Japanese, she's an alien of the Yato Clan. So not Chinese either, but she does have the qualifying hair buns, clothing and "aru."

She isn't of Chinese descent? Confused I thought just her name alone was an indication.

A Journey West which DragonBall is inspired by, is a chinese work......though that's not why I asked that. She's just not cute.

I find it interesting Chi Chi beat Chun LI considering Chun Li is more of an action girl. I guess some favored the housewife.

A quick-tempered housewife, to be exact. Wink

Glad one of the Chinese characters from Negima made the list. I prefer Ku Fei though. Smile

Chi-Chi has more "cute" qualities than Chun-Li though (fits every label here except the buns thing). Chun-Li can be rather arrogant which is a turn-off for most but Chi-Chi is pure.

Not according to Japan she isn't:
